Article 12.06. Insurance. The Region may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of an individual who is or was a Director, Officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the Region and who, while a Director, Officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Region, is or was serving at the request of the Region as a Director, officer, partner, trustee, employee, fiduciary, or agent of any other foreign or domestic corporation or of any partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise or employee benefit plan against any liability asserted against or incurred by him in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Region wouldhave the power to indemnify him against such liability under the foregoing provisions.
